Jack Zelcer was born in Verviers, Belgium on November 22, 1933. He was 6 when the war started and 12 when the war ended. Almost all of his family died during the war, only 4 survived. He was mostly in the forest hiding from the Nazis during the war. One time his mom hid him from the Nazis by sitting on him. So when the Nazis came by they couldn't see him. During the war, the trail car that was transporting his family got attacked by ally planes. So all the people jumped out of the car and ran into the forest because the door wasn't shut very well.

This is a picture of a German Rail Car with people that are about to be transported to the concentration camps.
This is a picture of a concentration camp. They are so skinny because they were starved.
They did this to honor the people who died during the holocaust and the soldiers who fought.
These are people getting transported by the Germans to the concentration camps.
These people are about to get transported in the rail cars to the camps.
What I Learned From Watching Safe Haven Warsaw Zoo
I learned that a family saved a almost 300 people from the Nazis.
They hid them in the animal cages.
Jan Zabinski owned a zoo.
On September 1, 1939 the Germans bombed Warsaw Poland.
The Germans didn't give milk to the Jews if they were an adult.
An adult was 6 months old or olderKids would sneak out of the Ghettos and get food.
The Germans would shoot the kids for doing so.
Then another kid would take their place
What I Learned From Watching Paper Clips the Movie
The paper clip was invented in Norway.
A middle school in Whitwell Tennessee collected over 24,000,000 paper clips.
They put the paper clips in a German Rail Car.
The German Rail Cars were very small.
They crammed 100 people into them.
How I feel I feel that The Holocaust was a very bad time for everyone especially the Jews. I think that the Jews were very mistreated during the Holocaust. I also think that nobody should have to live through that. I think it was crazy that Hitler considered a 6 month old baby an adult. Which meant they couldn't have the milk from the markets when the Nazis took over Poland. One really crazy thing was that the Nazis actually targeted the Jewish children because then they will grow up and more Jewish kids would be born.
